Nine Star Hegemon Body Art

Chapter 5134: Starting the Massacre

Long Chen slowly walked toward the whirlpool. The barrier before it was filled with countless swirling flame runes, and from it, he could vaguely hear the sound of a sacred chanting—the Nirvana Scripture.

This was the gate that the Brahma Pill Valley had set up using the Nirvana Scripture, and only the Brahma Pill Valley’s disciples and their trusted allies could pass through it.

Long Chen had heard that the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain had a core within its core, known as the Heavenly Star Fantasy Sea.

Within this sea was a legendary divine flame stone formed at the birth of the nine heavens and ten lands. It was believed to represent all Heavenly Flames in the world. According to legend, all Heavenly Flames within the nine heavens and ten lands were born from it.

This stone was called the Heavenly Flame Sourcestone, and it was the very reason the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain existed. To enter this core region, one had to pass through one of two paths: the Daynight Bridge or the Brahma Path.

Long Chen hadn’t intentionally chosen the Brahma Path; it just happened to be the closest to him.

He approached the barrier, placing his hand on it while chanting softly. A flame rune ignited on his palm, growing brighter with each verse.

With a slight push, the barrier shattered.

“Did you really think a barrier formed from the Nirvana Scripture’s runes could stop me?” Long Chen snorted and strode into the whirlpool.

When Long Chen stepped into the whirlpool, he was immediately engulfed by a world of white. White flames burned all around him.

In the midst of this vast sea of flames, a single path stretched far into the horizon. The white flames radiated sacred energy, and the path consisted of countless complicated flame runes. Long Chen couldn’t help being shaken when he saw that path.

“This is the Nirvana Scripture!” Long Chen instantly recognized the origin of those runes.

As he stared at the path, a vision formed in his mind: a figure moved through the sea of flames, each step bringing forth a surge of runes that wove together beneath his feet to create the path.

This figure was none other than Lord Brahma. Long Chen felt as though he was witnessing the same Lord Brahma who had once walked this very path. What shocked and enraged Long Chen the most was that this vision of Lord Brahma was just like him—someone in the Divine Venerate realm.

“How can this be?” muttered Long Chen, unable to believe what he was seeing.

“There’s no need to doubt it. That is Lord Brahma, and he’s in the same realm as you are,” replied the Earth Cauldron.

Long Chen stared at the path made of runes. Even after countless years, it remained the same as before, emitting a terrifying divine pressure. In front of this path, Long Chen felt tiny.

Long Chen had always been confident, but today, he received an immense blow. The path walked by Lord Brahma was sacred and divine, imbued with his will. Long Chen felt as if he were standing against an entire cosmos, and the overwhelming power made him feel weak.

Long Chen was completely stunned. Defeating Lord Brahma had always been his goal, but when he saw the Brahma Path, his confidence instantly crumbled.

The realization hit him hard—let alone the current Lord Brahma, even the old Lord Brahma who had walked this path long ago could kill him a thousand times over with just a wave of his hand. They simply weren’t on the same level.

“You don’t need to feel inferior. Lord Brahma’s accomplishments were largely thanks to his master. You didn’t have that privilege. Almost everything he had was given to him by his master, while everything you have was earned through your own struggle. Besides that, you were born in different eras. Back then, the nine heavens were at their peak, while you were born in a declining era. That’s a difference as vast as heaven and earth. But remember, a new era is dawning, and you are at the very heart of it. The nine heavens and ten lands are about to change. You still have a chance!” the Earth Cauldron comforted him.

Gritting his teeth, Long Chen grumbled, “Everything he had was given to him by his master, but he still betrayed his master!”

The Earth Cauldron sighed, “Humans. In this world, they are the most incomprehensible lifeform. They are both lovable and hateable.”

The Earth Cauldron seemed to have mixed emotions, losing itself in its memories.

“Long Chen!”

A startled cry rang out from within the white flames. The one shouting was clad in robes of the Brahma Pill Valley, which highlighted his status.

The Brahma Path was filled with faith energy, and Lord Brahma’s followers were here, enjoying the tempering of the faith flames, which rapidly upgraded their physical bodies and souls. Most importantly, there was no danger for them as they tempered themselves here.

At first, the man was shocked to see Long Chen, but then, his face twisted with savagery. A sword appeared in his hand, and he attacked without hesitation.

“A seven-star Doyen dares to attack me?” Long Chen snorted, reaching out to catch the sword with his hand. But then, a terrifying power erupted from the sword, blasting his hand back.

“Hm? Something’s off. His power…” Long Chen's heart shook as he realized that the sword contained powerful fluctuations, as if multiple sources were feeding it energy.

Seeing Long Chen unable to stop his sword, the disciple smirked and directly swung his sword at Long Chen’s throat.

“Die!”

Long Chen caught it again, but now his hand was covered in blood-colored dragon scales.

“Alright, time to die.” Long Chen snorted, pushing the sword back with force. The disciple couldn’t keep hold of his weapon, and the hilt slammed into his chest, blasting him into a mist of blood.

The next moment, many figures appeared within the surrounding flames, all coughing up blood.

When this disciple attacked, hundreds of his fellow disciples within the flames were sending him their energy. As a result, his attack power directly surpassed that of an average Heavenly Chosen, especially with the added boost of faith energy in this place. That was why Long Chen had been caught off guard at first.

However, even if these people were ten times stronger, it would be useless. With one counterattack, their trick was exposed.

Using this disciple’s sword, Long Chen launched a wave of Sword Qi that swept through the white flames, cutting the other disciples in two.

More figures started to emerge within the sea of flames. These experts had been hidden within the flames, tempering their bodies and souls in a half-meditative state. However, Long Chen’s attack roused them from their trance.

The minute they saw Long Chen, they roared and charged at him.

“You could have followed anyone, but you decided to follow that bastard Lord Brahma. Don’t blame me for being vicious,” muttered Long Chen.

Killing intent flared in Long Chen's eyes as he summoned the Dragon Blood Battle Armor and let out a thunderous roar. A dragon cry echoed across heaven and earth. This time, Long Chen didn’t hold back. He never showed mercy to his enemies.

To have reached this place, these people had to be disciples of the Brahma Pill Valley, followers of Lord Brahma, or have close ties to the Brahma Pill Valley. In any case, they were all enemies in Long Chen’s eyes.

The dragon cry rippled through the air, causing the flame sea to explode and qi waves to surge. Countless figures were blasted apart, and the entire Brahma Path quivered under the force of Long Chen’s roar.

Huge waves erupted within the white flame sea, crushing countless figures along the Brahma Path. Using this chance, Long Chen flew deeper into the Brahma Path.
